# 【ゲスト】コロチキにウザ絡み - Show: 火曜JUNK 爆笑問題カーボーイ - Published: 2026-10-21 - Canonical: https://podc.club/en/episode/1651794945_205d3a1895cf.html - Audio: https://pdst.fm/e/pscrb.fm/rss/p/traffic.megaphone.fm/TBS2784368804.mp3 - Source: Edited from a machine transcript of the first 30 minutes of the episode. Not an official summary. Korokiku (コロチキ) — the duo of Nadal and Nishino — returned to Bakusho Mondai Cowboy (爆笑問題カーボーイ) for the first time in eight years, and the mayhem began before the mics were even on: Ota Hikaru and Nadal were already screaming at each other in the makeup room. The episode packed in Nishino's sixth-place bodybuilding finish, his phimosis surgery at age 42, and Nadal's past life as a zookeeper who was rejected by every animal he tried to care for. ## What this episode answers ### What was already happening in the makeup room before Korokiku's recording began? Ota Hikaru and Nadal were already shouting at each other at full volume in the makeup room before recording started; Ota, who had complained that younger comedians no longer engage with him, was visibly delighted to have Nadal going all-out at him again, and the mayhem carried straight into the studio. ### How did Nishino end up competing in a bodybuilding competition, and what mishap occurred during it? Nishino got hooked on serious weight training through a 'Can You Get Ripped in 3 Months?' collaboration with a fitness YouTuber and placed sixth at a bodybuilding competition; carb-restriction-induced brain fog caused him to blank mid-skit and blurt out 'What does a hamburger mean to you, Nadal?' instead of the scripted 'What does a script mean to you, Nadal?' — to which Nadal replied 'Something cheap, fast, and delicious,' landing to complete silence. ### What happened when Nishino underwent phimosis surgery at age 42? Nishino became a clinic's ambassador after appearing in its commercial, had the entire surgical procedure filmed for YouTube, and then asked the clinic if he could take the removed tissue home to show his wife — only to be told it was classified as medical waste. ### How did the animals treat Nadal during his time as a zookeeper? Nadal's permanently wide, intense stare meant the penguins never warmed up to him at all, and the owls bit him every single time and refused to accept food from him. ### What went on during the listener 'annoying interference mail' segment? In the 'annoying interference mail' segment, Nishino exploded in anger during a 'say the one from Korokiku who isn't Nadal ten times' quiz; on this year's King of Conte, Nishino — who doesn't write the material — honestly said the scene where a Pachira plant is shoved up someone's backside was the funniest and easiest to understand. ## Article ## Eight Years Later: Chaos Starts in the Makeup Room Korokiku (コロチキ) — the duo of Nadal (ナダル) and Nishino (西野) — made their second-ever appearance on Bakusho Mondai Cowboy, their first since 2018. The episode's mayhem didn't wait for the recording light: the moment Ota Hikaru (太田光) laid eyes on Nadal in the makeup room, they were already screaming at each other at full volume. Ota had recently let slip that younger comedians no longer bother engaging with him properly, so having Nadal charge in at full intensity was visibly a gift. When Ota shot back "Are you in a choir?" at Nadal's extraordinary volume, the reply came as an indignant roar: "I'm not in a choir!" Tanaka Yuji (田中裕二) summed up the scene from the sidelines: "It was like two dogs fighting and then their owners showed up." ## Nishino's Bodybuilding Journey: Sixth Place and a Carb-Crash Disaster Nishino's descent into bodybuilding began with a collaboration project with a fitness YouTuber — a "Can You Get Ripped in 3 Months?" challenge — which turned into a full obsession, culminating in a sixth-place finish at a bodybuilding competition. Nadal came to cheer him on at the 1,000-capacity venue, firing off crowd-pleasing lines like "You've got melons on your shoulders" and "You could go rock-climbing on that back." The darker side of competition prep also came out: the severe carb restriction before the event gutted Nishino's judgment. Mid-skit, a line meant to be "What does a script mean to you, Nadal?" came out as "What does a hamburger mean to you, Nadal?" Nadal, unfazed, answered "Something cheap, fast, and delicious" — and the room went dead silent. Nishino also admitted that during university-festival season he had been shouting back at rowdy students with exactly the same energy. Off the stage, Nishino has launched a fitness apparel brand called Shishii (シシー) and published a book, Kinniku de Totonoeru: 3-kagetsu de Jinsei wo Torimodoru 40 no Hint (筋肉で整える 3ヶ月で人生を取り戻す40のヒント). He is currently appearing in Mizuho Bank commercials on a yearly contract. The flip side: four of his regular TV programs ended this spring — a fact he turned into a punchline by saying "my house is on fire." ## Age 42, Married, with Kids: The Phimosis Surgery and Its Aftermath Nishino dropped what he called his "biggest news": phimosis surgery at age 42. After appearing in a clinic's commercial, he became the brand's ambassador and had the entire procedure filmed for a YouTube documentary. The capper came after surgery, when he asked the clinic whether he could take the removed tissue home to show his wife. The clinic's response: "That is classified as medical waste." The studio erupted. Nishino also reflected that Korokiku won King of Conte eleven years ago, in 2015 — when he was 24 and Nadal was 30. ## Nadal's Zookeeper Days: Rejected by Penguins, Bitten by Owls Before entering comedy, Nadal worked as a keeper at an aquarium. The problem was his permanently wide, intense stare: the penguins never warmed up to him at all, and the owls were worse — they bit him every single time and refused to accept food from him. Viewers occasionally compare his eyes to those of well-known short-sleeper Hori Daisuke (堀大輔), but Nadal insists he gets plenty of sleep and was simply born looking this way. "No drugs — this is just my face," he said. ## Listener Mail: "Annoying Interference" at Full Volume As a Special Week feature, the show collected listener mails with "annoying interference" directed at Ota, Nadal, and Nishino. A "say 'the one from Korokiku who isn't Nadal' ten times" quiz sent Nishino over the edge — he exploded with "Shut up, you muscle-brained idiot!" and "What the hell?!" as Ota doubled over laughing. On this year's King of Conte, Nishino — who doesn't write the material — gave an unfiltered take: "The scene where a Pachira plant gets shoved up someone's backside was the clearest and funniest." When a listener asked "How do I get a body like Nishino's without training or dieting?" Nishino was left completely speechless, and the studio dissolved into laughter. ## Takeaways - While Nishino has gone all-in on a 'muscle comedian' identity — sixth place in bodybuilding, an apparel brand, a book, and a bank CM — four of his regular shows ended this spring, making for a sharply mixed update. - Nadal's overwhelming volume and relentless full-force antics gave Ota Hikaru, who had admitted younger comedians no longer engage with him, his first genuine laugh in a long time at their eight-year reunion. - From a phimosis surgery filmed for YouTube to owls that bit him every shift during his zookeeper days, Korokiku delivered an episode built entirely on their own stranger-than-fiction real-life stories.
